I am a dedicated golfer and although my wife is not, she still enjoys the fact that I make it a part of my routine to go on golf trips at least one weekend out of every month. She gets to vacation by the pool or spa while I get to play golf at some of the best courses there are to choose from.
We’ve taken many wonderful trips over the years and even spent time at some of the most exclusive Scotland golf courses. I’ve played in many amateur tournaments and even came close to professional status at one time but I’d rather just play for the fun of it and not for a paycheck. I get so much enjoyment from getting up early and playing 18 holes of golf before most people have their first cup of coffee in the morning.
I belong to a country club that often sponsors golf trips for the members. We usually go on four trips a year as a group and have played at some of the top courses in the country. It’s always a real honor to play on the same course that the pros play on. I’ve had the privilege of meeting some of the great golfers of our time such as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, and Phil Mickelson.
Living at Myrtle Beach makes it possible to golf just about all year long on my home course. My wife and I also own a condo in south Florida and often travel there during the winter months when the weather is just a bit too chilly to golf at home. I have to admit I’ve enjoyed every minute that I’ve been able to spend on the golf course; it has been a way of life for me for most of my adult life and am sure I will continue to golf for as long as I’m able to hold a club.
